Its hilarious when they show how completely unathletic and uncoordinated they are. The most manly "helper" on that show is the tatted up girl who is only on sometimes.
This is a cool site with all their myths busted, confirmed or plausible. Linky
I get that feeling, too. It almost seems like Jamie is bored with the whole show at times in recent episodes. I know some of it is his straight-man persona contrasted with Adam's goofiness, but he just seems to lack the enthusiasm at times that he had earlier in the show's run. I loved the older ones, like the one where he and Adam used salsa to try and bust out of prison bars.
Too bad, as I really love the show. I hope they can find new ways to keep it going.
